assignment‚ you will dissolve a sample of NaCl in water and then measure the boiling point elevation for the solution. 1. Start Virtual ChemLab and select Boiling Point Elevation from the list of assignments. The lab will open in the Calorimetry laboratory with a calorimeter on the lab bench and a sample of sodium chloride (NaCl) on the balance. 2. Record the mass of the sodium chloride in the data table. If it is too small to read‚ click on the Balance area to zoom in‚ record the reading

AP Chemistry Lab 2: Analysis of Alum Lab Objective: In this lab we will analyze alum by two techniques in order to verify its identity. The melting point and the mole ratio of hydrated water to anhydrous aluminum potassium sulfate will be determined. Lab Procedure: 1. Use a mortar and pestle to crush alum. 2. Pack the alum in capillary tube‚ and then fasten it to the thermometer. 3. Fasten the thermometer to the ring stand. 4. Immerse the bottom of the

AP Chemistry Kinetics Lab Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to learn how to write law expressions‚ determine orders by graphs‚ and calculate rate constants. By determining the number of drops of sodium hypochlorite necessary to make a diluted food dye change to colorless in less than three minutes helps calculate the absorbance which can then be analyzed to find the pseudo rate constant and eventually leading to the rate constant and the rate law. The results show that the m and n are both 1st

Table 8.1- Combustion of magnesium ribbon Observations Reaction was exothermic; magnesium ribbon burned and was glowing a bright white color when ignited. Reactants: Mg and O2 Products: MgO Balanced chemical equation 2Mg + O2 2MgO Table 8.2- Combustion of heptane Observations When holding test tube inverted over heptane flame‚ condensation formed against top walls of the test tube. When the burning splint was added the walls of the test tube became less foggy from the condensation

A>B>C A being the brightest 2. How do you predict that changing the direction of the current by reversing the connections to the battery in Figure 2-1 would change the rankings in (1)? I don’t think it will change at all. The brightness should be the same in diagram b and diagram a it should also stay
